Lash LaRue Western #5

This 1950 Fawcett publication captures the rugged charm of the era with a striking photo cover: Lash LaRue himself, dressed head-to-toe in black with his signature whip coiled in hand, sits astride a magnificent black horse against a bold yellow sun and vivid orange sky. It's the kind of image that made LaRue one of the most distinctive Western heroes of his day — cool, confident, and unmistakably his own. Inside, "The Rustler's Haven!" promises the kind of frontier trouble that suits this whip-cracking cowboy just fine.
